Holler looks to have returned from his trip to England in good shape and worked with zest at Moonee Valley on Tuesday.
The John O'Shea-trained four-year-old was ridden by James McDonald in his gallop with Archives and was still on the bridle at the line and edging the work.
Trainer Chris Waller paired Japonisme with the two-year-old Luiza in a short dash, Japonisme doing it comfortably and a confidence boost winning the gallop.
Below is a summary of trackwork from Manikato Stakes entries at Moonee Valley on Tuesday.

English on the outside and this a controlled piece of work, both well on the bridle in the straight and strong through the line. |

Strong work. Holler looks in good order out of his England trip and this was a searching gallop, strong throughout but both on the bridle through the line with Holler shading it at the finish. |

Solid gallop, the older horse on the inside and travelling easily. Luiza ridden along in the straight but the two-year-old held her own and looked to handle the course well. |

Wanted to get this done quickly but restrained by Kerrin McEvoy in what was more of a maintenance gallop. Looks in rude health. |
